Education

Education transforms lives and is at the heart of UNESCO’s mission to build peace, eradicate poverty and drive sustainable development. UNESCO believes that education is a human right for all throughout life and that access must be matched by quality. The Organization is the only United Nations agency with a mandate to cover all aspects of education. It has been entrusted to lead the coordination of the implementation of the Global Education 2030 Agenda/Sustainable Development Goal 4, Education for Sustainable Development and Global Citizenship Education. The roadmap to achieve this is the Education 2030 Framework for Action (FFA).
